Life Down On The Farm

The paperwork you have to fill out for college financial aid is insane! I filled out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) in January, that is 10 pages per kid. Then I had to fill out 3 pages for Brian to verify what I had told KU on the FAFSA. Of course that was followed by a letter from USD for Becky that I needed to do the same thing for her. Then yesterday I got a letter from KU that I needed to fill out 6 more pages for Brian to verify what I had verified! I swear these colleges would have more money for financial aid if they just put all their forms online and allowed them to be filled out that way...think of the money they could save in paper and postage!
